Unit 4 Everyday Use for your grandmamaAlice Walker 1.) About the authorAlice Walker (1944- ), poet, novelist and essayist, was born into a poor rural family in Eatonton, Georgia. Her parents made a living by growing cotton. When she went to Sarah Lawren ce College in the early 60’s, the civil rights movement was in full swing. She was actively involved in the movement and upon graduation worked in Mississippi, center of the civil rights activities. After experiencing the political movement and as a case worker for the New York City welfare department, she became a teacher of creative writing and black literature, lecturing at Jackson State College, Tougaloo College, Wellesley, Yale and University of California at Berkeley. Her writing career began with the publication of a volume of poetry in 1968, which was followed by a number of novels, short stories, critical essays and more poetry. Now she is regarded as one of the most prominent writers in American literature and a most forceful representative of wome n’s literature and black literature.Her works include The Thrid Life Grange Copeland (1970), Meridian (1976), a volume of poetry Revolutionary Petunias and Other Poems (1973), a collection of short stories In Love and Trouble: Stories of Black Women (1973) and a recent novel The Temple of My Familiar (1989). Her most significant novel is The Purple, published in 1982, which won all the three major book awards in America –the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. The novel was an instant bestseller and made into an equally successful movie in 1985, directed by Spielberg and starring Whoopi Goldberg.Alice Walker is at her best when portraying people living in the rural areas where the writer was born and grew up. As a black writer, Walker is particularly interested in examining the relationships among the blacks themselves.2.) “Everyday Use”(1973) is included in the Norton Anthology of Short Fiction, 2nd Edition, 1981. “Everyday Use”, one of the best-written short stories by Alice Walker, describes three women. The mother is a working woman without much education, but not without intelligence or perception. The two daughters form a sharp contrast in every conceivable way: appearance, character, personal experiences, etc. The story reaches its climax at the moment when Dee, the elder daughter, wants the old quilts only to e refused flatly by the mother, who intends to give them to Maggie, the younger one. The old quilts, made from pieces of clothes worn by grand and great grand parents and stitched by Grandma’s hand, are clearly a symbol of the cultural heritage of the black people. Their different feelings about the quilts reveal their different attitudes towards their heritage as blacks.The theme:The main theme in the story concerns the character’s connections to their ancestral roots.Dee Johnson believes that she is affirming her African heritage by changing her name, her mannerisms,and her appearance, even though her family has lived in the U.S. for several generations.The historical present:描述历史事件的现在时,使事件更生动、更真实The historcal present(some times dramatic present) refers to the employment of the present tense when narrating past events. It is used in fiction, for “hot news” (as in headlines), and in everyday conversation, it is partical any common with “verbs of communication” such as tell,write,etc.I will wait for her in the yard that Maggie and I made so clean and wavy yesterday afternoon. A yard like this is more comfortable than most people know. It is not just a yard. It is like an extended living room. When the hard clay is swept clean as a floor and the fine sand around the edges lined with tiny, irregular grooves, anyone can come and sit and look up into the elm tree and wait for the breezes that never come inside the house. 我就在这院子里等候她的到来。

Alice Walker作品简介
Major Works
• 1965-"To Hell With Dying" (short stories) • 1973-In Love and Trouble: Stories of Black Women ( a collection short stories) • 1976-Meridian《子午线》(novel) • 1982-The Color Purple (novel) • 1989-The Temple of My Familiar (novel) • 1998-By the Light of My Father's Eyes (novel)
• It is a short story in In love and Trouble and remains a cornerstone of her work. Her use of quilting as a metaphor for the creative legacy that African Americans inherited from their maternal ancestors changed the way we defined art, women's culture, and African American lives. By putting African American women's voices at the center of the narrative for the first time, "Everyday Use" anticipated the focus of an entire generation of black women writers. This casebook includes an introduction by the editor, a chronology of Walker's life, authoritative texts of "Everyday Use" and "In Search of Our Mothers' Gardens," an interview with Walker, six critical essays, and a bibliography.

总之, 这部作品是扎根于民间的、富 有生命力的开放体系;它借助“体裁面具” 的独特视角看世界,以其陌生化的语言构 筑离奇的意象, 或深化内涵或进行嘲讽; 在作品中,多种语言风格相混杂,体现出 “杂语性”的特征;有着典型的狂欢化场景 和狂欢式人物形象,且体现出狂欢化文学 中“加冕与脱冕”仪式的特殊含义。 《我弥 留之际》可以说是对巴赫金狂欢化诗学理 论的完美例证。

— ——解读《外婆的日用家当》中的三位女性
□杨 婧
艾 丽 丝·沃 克 (Alice Walker) 是 美 国 著名的黑人女作家,也是第一位获得普利 策奖的黑人女作家。 作为黑人女性文学的 领军人物,沃克特别关注美国黑人女性的 生存状况和她们的内心世界。 从她的作品 中,我们可以看到对黑人妇女所持有的不 同的意识形态、 不同的生活态度的描述, 也可以看到对黑人妇女价值的深层思考, 以及如何对待白人主流文化冲击下的黑 人传统文化遗产的忧虑。 如在《外婆的日 用家当》小说中塑造了三个鲜明的黑人女 性 形 象 — ——母 亲 及 她 的 两 个 女 儿 迪 伊 和 麦姬。 她们对待本民族文化和遗产有着各 自不同的态度。

女性主义(女权运动、女权主义)是指一个主要以女性 经验为来源与动机的社会理论与政治运动。在对社会关 系进行批判之外,许多女性主义的支持者也着重于性别 不平等的分析以及推动妇女的权利、利益与议题。 女性主义理论的目的在于了解不平等的本质以及着重在 性别政治、权力关系与性意识(sexuality)之上。女性 主义政治行动则挑战诸如生育权、堕胎权、教育权、家 庭暴力、产假(maternity leave)、薪资平等、投票权、 性骚扰、性别歧视与性暴力等等的议题。女性主义探究 的主题则包括歧视、刻板印象、物化(尤其是关于性的 物化)、身体、家务分配、压迫与父权。 女性主义的观念基础是认为,现时的社会建立于一个男 性被给予了比女性更多特权的父权体系之上。 现代女性主义理论主要、但并非完全地出自于西方的中 产阶级学术界。不过,女性主义运动是一个跨越阶级与 种族界线的草根运动。每个文化下面的女性主义运动各 有其独特性,并且会针对该社会的女性来提出议题,比 如苏丹的性器割除(genital mutilation,请见女性割礼) 或北美的玻璃天花板效应(glass ceiling)。而如强奸、 乱伦与母职则是普世性的议题。

3.此外,“紫色”除了象征生命的尊严和人类的希 望外, 紫色还是女同性恋主义的标志。书中对茜莉 和莎格·艾微利( Shug Avery) 的同性恋描写与严 格意义上的同性恋性关系是有区分的, 激进女权主 义者们声称, 女同性恋者实际上是自发的、“下意 识”的女权主义者,

Meridian is a heartfelt and moving story about one woman's personal revolution as she joins the Civil Rights Movement. Set in the American South in the 1960s it follows Meridian Hill, a courageous young woman who dedicates herself heart and soul to her civil rights work, touching the lives of those around her even as her own health begins to deteriorate. Hers is a lonely battle, but it is one she will not abandon, whatever the costs. This is classic Alice Walker, beautifully written, intense and passionate.

身为一名黑人女性,沃克更为关注黑人的困境、沉默的黑人女性以及生态环境等社会问题。

《紫色》是艾丽斯·沃克的代表作之一,在黑人文学史上有着深远的影响。

在《紫色》中,沃克描述了黑人妇女和自然在父权制社会统治下的遭遇,和努力寻求自我的过程。

本文以生态女性主义为视角,在性别压迫,种族歧视,生态危机的基础上,指出了父权制对自然与女性的双重统治,也探讨了女性和自然反抗压迫寻求和谐共存的道路。

本文从四个方面探讨了作者的生态女性主义意识。

首先简要介绍了国内外对艾丽斯·沃克的《紫色》的文学评论,提出了生态女性主义理论对艾丽斯·沃克作品的影响。

其次分析了小说中女性所遭受的双重压迫以及人类对自然环境的掠夺,并指明二者受压迫的同源性:父权制的统治。

然后论述了女性和自然反抗父权制统治的声音:女性的团结互助以及自然对人类的预警。

最后分析了黑人男性的转变,白人和黑人关系的转变,提出了男性与女性、白人与有色人种、人类与自然和平共处的可能性。

用生态女性主义理论来解读《紫色》可以拓宽对小说及作者创作思想的研究,同样也可以呼吁人类自身对生态平衡的关注与保护。

As a black woman, Walker pays more concerns on such issues as the plight of blacks, the muted group of black women,nature, and other social problems in American.The Color Purple one of her masterpieces,which has profound influence in the history of the African literature.In the novel,Walker depicts the oppression upon black women and the exploitation of nature in the patriarchal society and their searching for self identity as well. This thesis illustrates homogeneity of twin domination upon the black women and nature, and puts forward ways for harmonious survival of human and nature by close examination of gender oppression, racial discrimination and ecological crisis in The Color Purple. My thesis will be divided into four main parts. Firstly,I will make a brief introduction to literary review on Alice Walker's The Color Purple and introduces ecofeminism and its effects on Alice Walker's works. Secondly, specific analysis will be given to reveal the dominance over nature and women, and to illustrate the same cause for it: patriarchal domination. Thirdly, it illustrates the voices of rebellion from black women and nature: women's unity and alliance and the nature's pre-warning upon human beings. At last,based on the fictional details, it presents an analysis of transformation of the black men and the white; thus gives us a hopeful possibility for co-existence of human beings and nature. From the ecofeminist approach, it is expected to shed fresh light on the research of the novel and Walker's spirits and evoke more attention to ecological balance.Key words:“Color Purple”; eco-feminism; the black women; harmonyContents摘要 (I)Abstract (II)Chapter One Alice Walker and Eco-Feminism (1)1.1 Alice Walker and Literary Review on her Color Purple错误!未定义书签。

alice walker简介

简介
艾丽丝·沃克(Alice Walker,1944—)是20世纪70年代以来(欧美国家第二次妇女
运动之后)美国文坛最著名的黑人女作家之一。

她在她的小说里生动的反映了黑人女性的苦难,歌颂了她们与逆境搏斗的精神和奋发自立的坚强性格。

为了区别于其它女权主义者,她提出了“妇女主义”(Womanism)这一独特的思想概念。

如果说妇女主义是理论,她的长篇小说《紫色》(The Color Purple)便是对这一理论的具体实践。

《紫色》自1982年发表以来,便轰动美国文坛,接连获得了美国文学作品的三个大奖:普利策奖、全国图书奖和全国书评家奖。

艾丽丝·沃克成为获得普立策奖和全国图书奖的第一个黑人女作家。

影响
艾丽丝·沃克1983年曾随美国女作家代表团来华。

除《紫色》及一两个短篇外,艾丽丝的其他作品在中国译介不多。

她的最新小说是《在我父亲微笑的光芒下》(1998),该小说采用了多重的叙事角度,讲述了性与精神、父亲与女儿的关系,尤其剖析了几代人的不同观念。

评论界的反应不是很热烈,可见艾丽丝·沃克还没有成功地超越自我。

但不管是她自己还是别的黑人女作家,超越《紫色》本来就是一件不太容易的事,所以《紫色》在今天大家还在读。

可见《紫色》还在红着。
